Best horror movie in 30 years....NOT!

Rating: 6/10 (3 November 2002)

This movie is a brutally realistic movie about the days following a virus that wipes out the entire United Kingdom. It has some fantastic shots of London absolutely deserted, which make it amazing to imagine, but none the less this film has one major downfall..... it's got far too much talking and not enough action.
It is rated as an 18 and yet it has almost 20 minute intervals(or so it seems) between disgusting, gorey murders and attacking scenes. Not to say I'm only there for the blood and guts, but it is portrayed as a zombie film so i didn't expect a deep and meaningful discussion every time they changed location.
The only thing that made this film more bearable was the black comedy one liners, which made it so much easier to watch. In fact I would go as far as to say, that if this had been a video I would have quite easily fast forwarded it at least 2 or 3 times as the story line was going nowhere.
I'm not saying don't go to see this because if you like "zombie" films, that's what it is but please don't expect wall to wall action because you will sorely disappointed.
Marks out of 10 - 6.5 ( and that's higher because of the humour)
